TO ALL OFFICE BEARERS, STATE FEDERATIONS AND ALL INDIA BANKWISE ORGANISATIONS:

Dear Comrades,

Our current struggle programmes

State-level Rallies on 11th May & Strike on 25th May postponed

UFBU meeting on 11th May to chalk out common programme

Given the increasing attacks in banking sector and the Government’s hurry to implement their banking reforms agenda, the call was given by AIBEA for various struggle programmes including State-level Rallies on 11th May, 2016 and All India Strike on 25th May, 2016.

In the recent meeting of the UFBU, it was suggested by AIBEA to all the Unions that the struggle programmes are to be undertaken by all the unions as the attacks are common. We also suggested that the date of the strike may be rescheduled and common agitational programmes can be chalked out by UFBU which would be more effective. The meeting was receptive to this suggestion and after discussion, it was felt that the issue may be further discussed and decided in the next meeting of the UFBU being held on 11th May, 2016.

Hence the matter was placed before AIBEA’s General Council meeting held at Delhi on 25th April, 2016 and the GC endorsed the recommendation of the office bearers to postpone/defer our agitational progrmames i.e. the State-level Rally on 11th May and All India strike on 25th May, 2016.
